From all sides
beleaguered he curls inward
sea anemone protecting
its tender center
chrysalis undefended vulnerable
somehow valiant in pure
inevitability facing down storms
exposed yet diffident
his strategy detachment
rolled and coiled
in deepest dark
in singular solitude it begins
in a crystal spark
a listless centering elemental
listening will be his
salvation intuition the springtime of
his moist-winged fluttering
carried aloft
by a grateful current
